On the 11th, the People Power Party targeted Lee Jae-myeong, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, who is known to have recently visited and eaten at a raw fish restaurant in Mokpo먹튀검증, Jeollanam-do, saying, “On the day when people shouted condemnation of Fukushima contaminated water, they secretly ‘raw’ miscellaneous fish without the public’s knowledge.” “Did you agree with what you heard?” he said sarcastically.

He was criticizing a media report that Representative Lee visited a nearby raw fish restaurant and had a meal with floor leader Park Gwang-on and other lawmakers on the 30th of last month, while holding a rally condemning the discharge of contaminated water at Mokpo Station Plaza.

Representative Lee began an ‘indefinite fast’ sit-in protest starting the next day, the 31st of the same month.

Kim Min-soo, spokesperson for the People Power Party, said in a commentary, “He is a self-deceiver. Representative Lee Jae-myeong deceived the people with actions that he himself did not believe in.”

He continued, “It was revealed that Lee Jae-myung’s ‘Fukushima contaminated water’ was nothing more than a bulletproof defense against his criminal charges and a means for the ‘Movement to resign from the Yoon Seok-yeol regime’ without asking any questions.” “They neglected the people’s livelihood issues and turned the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea into a ‘street-polluting National Assembly,’” he said.

At the same time, he directly responded, “CEO Lee! A day before fasting, did you get enough nutrients from healthy seafood? Since you like ‘raw food’ so much, there is a joke that you are fasting by eating raw food as well.”

Spokesperson Kim said, “How can the crime of spreading false information to the public, falsely instigating and dividing public opinion about the dangers of Fukushima contaminated water, which they themselves did not believe in, be light?” He added, “Representative Lee and the Democratic Party are committing a grave sin in front of the people right now and will no longer protect the people.” “It should not lead to anxiety,” he argued.

In addition, he added, “I hope that all ‘raw fasting shows’ and ‘false actions’ will be stopped and that the prosecutors’ investigation into criminal charges will be conducted honestly and faithfully.”
